MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Change is coming to President Bongbong Marcos’ Malacañang soon!

This change was revealed by the Office of the Press Secretary just hours after Marcos greeted former President Rodrigo Duterte on the occasion of his 78th birthday.

In his video message, Marcos said he now realizes that Duterte’s communication style is more effective that his own, calm and diplomatic way of delivering speeches and responding to questions from the press.

Henceforth, Malacañang said to expect Marcos to start using expletives in his speeches and public statements.

HERE is Marcos in his own words.

Leni Robredo: Richard Heydarian Amazed At The Magic Of Filter

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Self-proclaimed political analyst Richard Heydarian just can’t keep his admiration for his Pinklawan idol Leni Robredo to himself. He had to proclaim it to the Twitter world.

In a recent post, Heydarian was shocked and awed at how technology can alter appearances, even for — in his words —ex-(“legitimately-elected) Vice Presidents and might we add, current overwhelmingly-defeated Presidential candidates.

Heydarian posted two photos of Robredo in what appeared to be a selfi amid cherry blossoms in Japan (or is it Washington, D.C.?). One photo showed the Robredo photo without filter and the other, with filter.

He described Robredo as “iba” (different).

Fortunately, the cherry blossoms were a delight to see in both photos.
